Plastic is a very versatile material. It is used in different types of packaging and containers for food as they help protect food, prevent damage, and guarantee food safety and prolong the freshness of food.
The food industry must follow quality standards and norms for its packaging and components since they are products that will be ingested. What companies want the least is to poison or damage the digestive system by a component that is not appropriate for health.
